Bringing Stories to Life: Adaptations
Did you know that some of these tales became animated films? Two stories from Topsy Turvy Tales were turned into short animations. These were The Girl With Liquid Eyes and The Man With The Stolen Heart. Famous actors Maryam d'Abo and Bill Nighy even lent their voices to these animated versions.
Awards for The Man With The Stolen Heart
The animated film The Man With The Stolen Heart received special recognition. It was nominated for "Best Animation" at the Charlotte Film Festival. Even better, it won the "Best Animation" award at the UK Film Festival! At the Cambridge Film Festival, writer Jamie Brittain shared his thoughts on the film.
